Tuesday: R+Co Skyline Dry Shampoo Powder, $36 I usually reach for dry shampoo sprays but I figured I might as well give a different type of formula a try — in the name of journalism, of course. The reason why I've stayed away from powders in the past is because I've been nervous that they'll be messy and leave me with noticeable white streaks in my dark brown hair. Luckily, I didn't experience that when using this dry shampoo, which features diatomaceous earth (a mineral compound that absorbs oil and adds texture), jojoba seed oil (which conditions and pumps up shine) and burdock root extract (which helps remove flakes). I sprayed the powder right onto my roots after a fun Restaurant Week dinner with friends and massaged it in until I couldn't see it anymore. The ends of my hair started to get even curlier on Tuesday and this dry shampoo helped enhance my hair's texture. It was a little bit messy, but I mostly chalk that up to my inexperience using powder dry shampoo.
